In the form of an Advertisement for Peps
Mr A Green, canteen manager of the Military Police at Aldershot, and a retired member of the same force, in which he served for 22 years, writes from 65 St George's Road, Aldershot, the following enthusiastic account of his experience of Peps for coughs and colds:-
"Some time ago I suffered severely from a frightful cold in the head and chest. It was nothing but cough, cough, cough, night and day. My head was completely stuffed up so that I could scarcely breath. A chemist strongly advised me to try Peps. Well, before I had half finished that box my cold was completely broken up. What is more, I feel in better health bodily than I have done for a long time. I could not wish to feel better than I do to-day, and I know it is Peps that have done this form me, for I have taken nothing else.
Of all chemists at 1/11/2 or 2/9d. See the name Peps on every box. PEPS a Pine Forest In Every Home.
